Abstract

The first volume of The Cambridge History of Communism deals with the tumultuous events from 1917 to the Second World War, such as the Russian Revolution and Civil War, the revolutionary turmoil in post-World War I Europe, and the Spanish Civil War. Leading experts analyse the ideological roots of communism, historical personalities such as Lenin, Stalin, and Trotsky and the development of the Communist movement on a world scale against this backdrop of conflict that defined the period. It addresses the making of Soviet institutions, economy, and society while also looking at mass violence and relations between the state, workers, and peasants. It introduces crucial communist experiences in Germany, China, and Central Asia. At the same time, it also explores international and transnational communist practices concerning key issues such as gender, subjectivity, generations, intellectuals, nationalism, and the cult of personality.

Abstract

The history of the Cold War is being re-written according to the newly available sources. But first and foremost it needs to be re-conceptualized and framed within the broader historical context that transformed the Cold War from the 1960s onwards, altered the very dynamics of bipolarism, and eventually brought it to its end. The long duration and the unexpectedly peaceful ending of the Cold War call for new views that transcend the established paradigms about its inception. Historians ought to address all those transformations in the international economy, in the networks of interdependence linking together new areas - especially in Asia - and in the ensuing cultural images that gradually narrowed the relevance of bipolarism. Thus the habitual diplomatic and security themes must be enjoined with economic, ideological, technological and cultural ones. Here a distinguished group of international history specialists discusses the complex relationship between Cold War dynamics, the globalizing of capitalism, and the demise of Soviet Communism. Their controversial and conflicting views, as well as their multidisciplinary approaches, highlight the various factors that constituted (and did not constitute) the Cold War. Thus they help to redefine the concept itself, to map its values and limitations, and to propel historical debate onto new grounds.

Abstract

The Global Revolution. A History of International Communism 1917-1991 establishes a relationship between the history of communism and the main processes of globalization in the past century. Drawing on a wealth of archival sources, Silvio Pons analyses the multifaceted and contradictory relationship between the Soviet Union and the international communist movement, to show how communism played a major part in the formation of our modern world.The volume presents the argument that during the age of wars from 1914 to 1945, the establishment of the Soviet state in Russia and the birth of the comm

Abstract

Tra il 1985 e le due importanti visite di Stato del 1988 e 1989 prende forma la peculiare posizione del governo italiano nei confronti del tentativo riformista in atto in URSS, posizione che lo distingue dagli altri componenti del G7. Ne è protagonista Andreotti, che giudicava l’evoluzione del comunismo gorbačëviano un fenomeno complessivamente positivo per la società sovietica e per la politica internazionale, condividendo in grande misura la visione moderata del «sistema di mercato» e la critica di quelle che Gorbačëv ancora chiamava le "contraddizioni del capitalismo". Soprattutto, come sottolinea Silvio Pons, Andreotti condivideva con il presidente sovietico la visione di un futuro ordine bipolare senza la Guerra fredda: una visione «legata a un mondo in dissoluzione» che faceva proprio consapevolmente "il problema di costruire un’architettura nelle relazioni tra l’Europa e la Russia/URSS", il cui fallimento corrispose alla rimozione della "coscienza stessa del problema". Passata la prova di eventi epocali come il crollo del muro di Berlino, la riunificazione tedesca, la prima Guerra del Golfo, quella sintonia e il disegno strategico di cui era espressione si sarebbero infatti infranti nella fine dell’Unione sovietica del dicembre 1991.
